The 6×2 Component Video Matrix Selector has been named the winner of the Audioholics 2007 Consumer Excellence Award for Video Systems/Distribution.

The 6×2 Component Video Matrix Selector is the ultimate controller for high definition and progressive scan video sources. This HDTV selector allows you to simultaneously route any of six source devices to two separate TV/monitors or one source to two TV/monitors.

Connect all your HDTV products such as DVD players, satellite receivers, cable set-top boxes, or gaming systems, and use the remote control or front panel buttons to watch any picture on either of two plasma, CRT, LCD or projection televisions with complete independence!

This switch offers six component video inputs, six stereo audio inputs, and six optical digital audio TOSlink inputs. It will switch all of these inputs to either of the two outputs, with the audio following video. Comes complete with an infrared remote control that features discrete commands to make programming complex macros into your universal remote control system a snap. Now you can take control of your system and watch what you want, where you want, and do it with no compromises!

My goal is to get a fan less, solid state hard drive, HDMI and Component in/out, blue ray, media server pc for under $500. Recommended 3.2ghz or dual core processor for blueray playback.
